I have been wondering of this so called DNA testing was indeed just measuring the bees and their parts. I wonder if small cell/natural cell sized bees would be considered AHB if they were measured. I think someone with small cell bees that know they are not african should send a bunch in to be tested just to see how it turns out. I can't do it. All my bees have been caught in AHB areas.
